A little humorous note about Chief John. I am not sure if any of you are familiar with some of the MacLeod folklore, but at Castle Dunvegan is the MacLeod drinking horn. It holds close to two bottles of wine. Upon coming of age, the next in line chief must drink from the full horn, without lowering it or spilling it. Chief John did this on his 18th birthday in one minute 55 seconds. I must say that is quite a feat. I also have a drinking horn that holds two bottles of wine. I can't do it.
